I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 498


    “I don’t care. I won’t give in that easily.” Jiang Yu was still fuming when they returned to their room. She


    looked at Shi Jingzheng and sneered, “Are you satisfied with this kind of oue?”


    Shi Jingzheng red at her. “What are you nning to do then?”


    “Hmph! After doing so much work, how dare he not give us anything. Have you forgotten that Dad gave


    his shares in Huancheng to Shi Nuan? When he decided that, she was still a member of the Shi family.


    But now that she has changed her surname, she is no longer one of us. What right does she have to


    own Huancheng’s shares?”


    Shi Jingzheng recalled the matter now that Jiang Yu had brought it up. “That’s right. Old Master Shi did


    give the shares to Shi Nuan.” At that time, he had objected but could do nothing to change his father’s


    mind.


    After all, Shi Jingzheng respected his father a lot and wouldn’t have shed with his father over


    something like that. However, he realized that Jiang Yu was right. Now that Shi Nuan wasn’t a member


    of the Shi family, she no longer deserved to own the shares in Huancheng.


    “What do you n to do?”


    “Since they want the household registers, fine. Just give us back the shares then.” Jiang Yu was


    adamant in her decision. “Tell your father that you will be the one to meet Shi Nuan tomorrow to change


    her surname. By that time, we will decide what happens.”


    Shi Jingzheng nodded. “You’re right. Let’s go with your n then.”


    Shi Nuan’s phone rang incessantly since early morning. As she was sound asleep, it woke Fu


    Chengyan up instead. When he saw the caller ID, his eyes narrowed. “Hello?”


    “Nuan… huh? You are?”


    “I’m Fu Chengyan.” When he heard Fu Chengyan’s deep voice, the man on the other line was stunned


    briefly. He continued, “Yan, it’s Shi Jingzheng. I…”

    “Oh, so it’s Mr. Shi.” Fu Chengyan chuckled. “Mr. Shi, may I know why are you calling so early in the


    morning?”


    Fu Chengyan’s voice became frosty immediately. When Shi Jingzheng heard Fu Chengyan address


    him as Mr. Shi, his gaze turned awkward. However, he feigned ignorance and continued, “Erm… is


    Nuan awake? Can you let me speak to her?”


    Fu Chengyan nced at Shi Nuan who was still sound asleep and replied, “No, but it’s the same if you


    tell me whatever you nned to say to her.”


    “Well…”


    “Yes? Is it something that I’m not supposed to know?”


    “No, no, I don’t mean that.” Shi Jingzheng didn’t dare make any demands in front of Fu Chengyan. He


    quickly changed his tact. “Well, Nuan wants to return to the Su family, right? My Dad has asked me to


    apany Nuan to get her name changed. It rtes to the household register, and Nuan’s household


    register is still with us.”


    Fu Chengyan squinted his eyes, “Is that so?”


    “Yes. Yan, can you check when Nuan is free? Ask her… erm, what I mean is that since Nuan is no


    longer a member of the Shi family, therefore…”


    “Therefore what?” Fu Chengyan knew that Shi Jingzheng definitely had an ulterior motive for calling.


    He likely didn’t expect me to be the one to pick up. Hence, he is stuttering in panic.


    “Actually Mr. Shi, there’s no need for the trouble. When we visited yesterday, May’s main purpose was


    to pay respect to her Granddad. With regards to the change in surname, you don’t have to trouble


    yourself with it.”


    “Hold on now, what do you mean?” Shi Jingzheng understood what Fu Chengyan meant. “But Nuan’s


    household register is still with us. How can…”


    “Mr. Shi, don’t you have any confidence in my capabilities by now? I married May without your


    permission, do you think I need your household register to change her surname?” Fu Chengyan smiled


    faintly. His smile resembled that of a smirk than a smile.


    Using his hands to lift up the nket, he proceeded to cover Shi Nuan properly. After that, he headed


    to the balcony and watched what was going on downstairs.


    Old Master Fu was ying chess with Su Huaibei. Su Huaibei had arrived very early, likely with the


    intention of changing Shi Nuan’s name.


    Su Huaibei saw Fu Chengyan from below and nodded to greet him.


    Fu Chengyan nodded back and shifted his gaze away. Tapping his fingers on the balcony railing, he


    remarked, “Well, that’s all for now, I got to go.”


    “Hello, hello…” Before Shi Jingzheng could even reply, Fu Chengyan had ended the call.


    “How did it go?”


    Jiang Yu approached and saw Shi Jingzheng’s shaken expression. “Did Shi Nuan gave you a hard


    time?”


    “That damn wretch, did she disagree?” Jiang Yu gritted her teeth. “Come, let’s go see her. If she


    doesn’t agree, we won’t allow her to change her surname.”


    “Enough, it wasn’t her that answered!” Shi Jingzheng was in a foul mood. “In fact, I didn’t get to speak


    to her at all.”


    “Then why are you so angry?”


    “It was Fu Chengyan that answered,” Shi Jingzheng grumbled. “He was so cocky that I didn’t even


    have the opportunity to tell him. He told me that they came yesterday just to inform us about it and


    weren’t asking for our consent. In fact, he said that he didn’t even need our household register. He…”


    “What?” Jiang Yu couldn’t help but shriek. “Is he going to cut ties with us just like that?”


    Shi Jingzheng scratched his head in frustration. “Enough, and lower your voice. If Dad hears about this,


    it will only make things more difficult. I think we should just meet with Shi Nuan discreetly about this.


    We must take back the shares.”


    Meanwhile, Shi Wei was standing outside. When she heard Shi Jingzheng and Jiang Yu’s


    conversation, her eyes glistened with hatred.


    I have almost forgotten that Granddad had given his shares in Huancheng to that despicable woman.


    Since she’s no longer a member of the Shi family, why does she deserve to own part of the family’s


    assets? Even if Mom and Dad won’t see her, I will.


    At that moment, Shi Nuan was still sound asleep and was oblivious to the gathering storm over the


    matters involving her.


    After washing up, Fu Chengyan headed downstairs. Fu Zhengyun and Su Huaibei had finished a few


    games of chess by then. When he saw Fu Chengyan, Fu Zhengyun snorted with displeasure. “You


    reallyck discipline. You’re no longer a child and yet still wake up sote.”


    “He’s still young!” Su Huaibei smiled as he didn’t mind it at all. “Now that Nuan is pregnant, it’s good


    that Yan spends more time by her side.”


    “Hmph!” Fu Zhengyun snorted again. However, he began to let out a smile at the mere mention of Shi


    Nuan. After that, he nced at Fu Chengyan who was approaching them. “Where’s Nuan?”


    “She’s still asleep.”


    Fu Zhengyun nodded. “Pregnant women do need more sleep as it’s good for their health. Tell Aunt


    Zhang to boil some herbal soup for herter. I saw that she wasn’t looking too good when you returned


    last night.” Just as he spoke, he suddenly recalled something. “Did the Shi family make things difficult


    for Nuan?”


    “No!”


    “That’s good!” While Fu Zhengyun continued with his game of chess, the tea he prepared came to a


    boil. When he saw Fu Chengyan fumbling around with it, he couldn’t help but frown. “Look at how


    terrible you are at his, you’re still a far cry from Nuan.”


    Just as Fu Chengyan was about to serve tea, he suddenly paused as he found thement amusing.


    “Since when did May prepare tea for you?”


    “Of course she did, thest time…” Just as Fu Zhengyun began to speak, he stopped abruptly. He


    snorted again, “Don’t think I’m oblivious to what you’re doing. Are you trying to chide me in front of your


    father-inw?”


    During that time, Fu Zhengyun disapproved of Shi Nuan and now he was being made to eat his words.


    However, Fu Zhengyun had a straightforward character. Since he had made a mistake, he admitted to


    it.


    While Fu Chengyan handed Fu Zhengyun and Su Huaibei their teacups, he remarked, “With regards to


    changing Shi Nuan’s surname, I’ll get someone to take care of it.”


    Su Huaibei was surprised to hear it. “But Nuan’s household register is still tied to the Shi family, so we


    need to inform them first. Old Mr. Shi still hasn’t given his permission.”


    Fu Chengyan sneered in response, “Shi Jingzheng gave Nuan a call this morning.”


    “Oh?” Fu Zhengyun’s interest was piqued. “What did he say? I don’t think he is going to give up the


    household register just like that, is he?”


    Fu Chengyan nodded. “From what I can gather, he wants something in return for consenting to May


    changing her surname.”


    “Does he still want the Aureate Jade project?” Su Huaibei asked with a frown. “Why don’t you let the Su


    family handle this. After all, Nuan is now one of us and all this started because of me.”


    “There’s no need for that as they no longer want the Aureate Jade project.” Fu Chengyan squinted his


    eyes. Just when he recalled something, his eyes shed in epiphany. “This is but a trivial matter, I’ll


    handle it myself.”


    Su Huaibei nodded. “It’s good to hear that it’s not going to be difficult. If you encounter any problems,


    please let me know.” Although he wasn’t as influential in Jiang City, the Su family was still well


    respected there.


    Fu Chengyan nodded. “Changing her surname isn’t something troublesome.”


    By the time Shi Nuan awoke, it was alreadyte morning. When she reached out her hand to feel the


    bed beside her, she noticed it was cold to the touch. Regaining her senses, she opened her eyes


    suddenly and was greeted by a small face blinking at her up close.


    Just when Shi Nuan recoiled in surprise, she heard Cheng An pped and cried out. “Aunt Nuan is


    awake! Aunt Nuan’s azy bum. Even when the sun is shining on her bum, she still wants toze in


    bed.”


    Shi Nuan hugged her pillow as she got up in a grouchy mood. “An, stop yelling!”


    “Nenenenene!” Cheng An stuck out her tongue. “Can’t stop, won’t stop!”


    “You naughty girl!” Shi Nuan jumped out of bed but was caught at the waist by a pair ofrge hands.


    Turning around and blinking, she put her arms around Fu Chengyan’s waist. “Where did youe out


    from?”


    Fu Chengyan couldn’t help but chuckle as he poked Shi Nuan’s forehead with his finger. “I’ve been


    beside you all this while, didn’t you see me?”


    “No.” Shi Nuan couldn’t help but stuck out her tongue too. “What time is it?”


    “Eleven.”


    “What! It’s already sote!” Shi Nuan eximed suddenly. “Why didn’t you wake me up? I’ve overslept


    again.” Shi Nuan covered her mouth. “Oh my God! My reputation! How am I to face the world now?”


    “Stop exaggerating!” Fu Chengyan peeled her hands off her mouth. He then swept her off her feet and


    carried her into the bathroom. “Wash your face. He’s already here.”
